This patch changes the CRC extension to use the core feature bits instead
of the coproc/fpu feature bits.
CRC is not an fpu feature and it causes issues with the new fpu reset
patch (f439988037). CRC can be set using
the '.arch_extension' directive, which sets bits in the coproc bitfield. When
a '.fpu' directive is encountered, the CRC feature bit gets removed and
there is no way to set it back using '.fpu'.
With this patch, CRC will be marked in the feature core bits, which prevents
it from getting removed when setting/changing the fpu options.

This patch updates the decoding of the VMOV and VMVN instructions which depend on cmode.
Previously VMOV and VMVN with cmode 1101 were not allowed.
The cmode changes also required updating of the MVE conflict checking.
Now instructions with opcodes 0xef800d50 and 0xef800e70 correctly get decoded as VMOV
and VMVN, respectively.

Hi,
This patch is part of a series that adds support for Armv8.6-A
(Matrix Multiply and BFloat16 extensions) to binutils.
Some generic instructions match a large range of encoding space (e.g.
stc, mcr, mrc).
Currently these instructions are in the coprocessor_opcodes array, which
means they are checked before many other instructions when disassembling
arm and thumb32 codes.
This patch moves the generic instructions into a separate array to be
checked later on.
This is done in order to avoid instruction conflict between the generic
instructions and newer ones -- this has already been seen with MVE, and
is also a problem with BFloat16.
One way to avoid the conflict could be to swap the search order between
coprocessor_opcodes and neon_opcodes.
We avoid this since it's a larger change that may introduce extra bugs
(that aren't caught by the testsuite).
We have decided against searching the generic array after searching the
arm specific and thumb32 specific arrays with a similar reasoning about
keeping the change small.
Regression tested with arm-none-linux-gnueabihf.

* arm-dis.c (print_insn_coprocessor_1): Disable the use of coprocessors
8, 14 and 15 for Armv8.1-M Mainline.
GNU as' Arm backend assumes each mnemonic has a single entry in the instruction table but VLDR (system register) and VSTR (system register) are different instructions than VLDR and VSTR. It is thus necessary to add some form of demultiplexing in the parser. It starts by creating a new operand type OP_VLDR which indicate that the operand is either the existing OP_RVSD operand or a system register. The function parse_operands () then tries these two cases in order, calling the new parse_sys_vldr_vstr for the second case.
Since the encoding function is specified in the instruction table entry, it also need to have some sort of demultiplexing. This is done in do_vldr_vstr which either calls the existing do_neon_ldr_str () or calls the new do_t_vldr_vstr_sysreg ().
A new internal relocation is needed as well since the offset has a shorter range than in other Thumb coprocessor instructions. Disassembly also requires special care since VSTR (system register) reuse the STC encoding with the coprocessor number 15. Armv8.1-M Mainline ARM manual states that coprocessor 8, 14 and 15 are reserved for floating-point and MVE instructions a feature bit check is added if the coprocessor number is one of this value and we are trying to match a coprocessor instruction (eg. STC) to forbid the match.

(print_insn_coprocessor): Forbid coprocessor numbers 8, 14 and 15 in
coprocessor instructions on Armv8.1-M Mainline targets. Add handling

Like for CLRM, this patch aims to share as much logic with the similar looking VLDM/VSTM. This is achieved by adding 2 new enumerator values in enum reg_list_els for the single-precision and double-precision variants of VSCCLRM and extending parse_vfp_reg_list () to deal with these types.
These behave like the existing REGLIST_VFP_S and REGLIST_VFP_D types with extra logic to expect VPR as the last element in the register list.
The function is algo augmented with a new partial_match parameter to indicate if any register other than VPR had already been parsed in the register list so as to not try parsing the second variant if that's the case and return the right error message.
The rest of the patch is the usual encoding function, new disassembler table entries and format specifier and parsing, encoding and disassembling tests.
It is worth mentioning that the new entry in the disassembler table was added in the coprocessor-related table despite VSCCLRM always being available even in FPU-less configurations. The main reason for this is that VSCCLRM also match VLDMIA entry and must thus be tried first but coprocessor entries are tried before T32 entries. It also makes sense because it is in the same encoding space as coprocessor and VFP instructions and is thus the natural place for someone to look for this instruction.
Note: Both variants of VSCCLRM support D16-D31 registers but Armv8.1-M Mainline overall does not. I have thus decided not to implement support for these registers in order to keep the code simpler. It can always be added later if needed.

* arm-dis.c (coprocessor_opcodes): Document new %C format control code.
Add new entries for VSCCLRM instruction.
(print_insn_coprocessor): Handle new %C format control code.
The coprocessor_opcodes table is used both to share commonalities in coprocessor-related instructions and to avoid duplication between Arm and Thumb mode. However, some instructions do have differences between Arm and Thumb. For instance, vldmia allows PC as base register in Arm mode but not in Thumb mode.
In that very case the distinction becomes necessary because the encoding with PC as base register is used in Thumb mode to denote a VSCCLRM. It is thus necessary to distinguish what is Arm or Thumb only from what is shared. This patch adds an extra field to the coprocessor_opcodes table entries to indicate what mode is a given instruction available in. The print_insn_coprocessor then uses that field to determine if an entry that matched the mark and value checked should be allowed to match or not given the current mode.
ChangeLog entry is as follows:
*** opcodes/ChangeLog ***
2019-04-15 Thomas Preud'homme <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com>
* arm-dis.c (enum isa): New enum.
(struct sopcode32): New structure.
(coprocessor_opcodes): change type of entries to struct sopcode32 and
set isa field of all current entries to ANY.
(print_insn_coprocessor): Change type of insn to struct sopcode32.
Only match an entry if its isa field allows the current mode.
Given the similarity between LDM/STM and CLRM register lists, most of the changes in this patch aim at sharing code between those two sets of instruction. Sharing is achieved both in parsing and encoding of those instructions.
In terms of parsing, parse_reg_list () is extended to take a type that describe what type of instruction is being parsed. The reg_list_els used for parse_vfp_reg_list () is reused for the type and that function is added an assert for the new REGLIST_CLRM and REGLIST_RN enumerators.
parse_reg_list () is then taught to accept APSR and reject SP and PC when parsing for a CLRM instruction. At last, caller of parse_reg_list () is updated accordingly and logic is added for the new OP_CLRMLST operand.
Encoding-wise, encode_thumb2_ldmstm () is reused to encode the variable bits of CLRM and is thus renamed encode_thumb2_multi (). A new do_io parameter is added to distinguish between LDM/STM and CLRM which guard all the LDM/STM specific code of the function.
Finally objdump is told how to disassemble CLRM, again reusing the logic to print the LDM/STM register list (format specifier 'm'). Tests are also added in the form of negative tests to check parsing and encoding/disassembling tests.

+ declare the new value
+ update all the asserts forcing logic to be reviewed for new
architectures
+ create a corresponding bfd_mach_arm_8_1M_MAIN enumerator in bfd and
add mapping from Tag_CPU_arch to it
+ teach readelf about new Tag_CPU_arch value
- declare armv8.1-m.main as a supported architecture value
- define Armv8.1-M Mainline in terms of feature bits available
- tell objdump mapping from bfd_mach_arm_8_1M_MAIN enumerator to feature
bits available
- update architecture-specific logic in gas and bfd guarded by the
asserts mentioned above.
- tests for all the above

Similar to the AArch64 patches the Arm disassembler has the same issues with
out of order sections but also a few short comings.
For one thing there are multiple code blocks to determine mapping symbols, and
they all work slightly different, and neither fully correct. The first thing
this patch does is centralise the mapping symbols search into one function
mapping_symbol_for_insn. This function is then updated to perform a search in
a similar way as AArch64.
Their used to be a value has_mapping_symbols which was used to determine the
default disassembly for objects that have no mapping symbols. The problem with
the approach was that it was determining this value in the same loop that needed
it, which is why this field could take on the states -1, 0, 1 where -1 means
"don't know". However this means that until you actually find a mapping symbol
or reach the end of the disassembly glob, you don't know if you did the right
action or not, and if you didn't you can't correct it anymore.
This is why the two jump-reloc-veneers-* testcases end up disassembling some
insn as data when they shouldn't.
Out of order here refers to an object file where sections are not listed in a
monotonic increasing VMA order.
The ELF ABI for Arm [1] specifies the following for mapping symbols:
1) A text section must always have a corresponding mapping symbol at it's
start.
2) Data sections do not require any mapping symbols.
3) The range of a mapping symbol extends from the address it starts on up to
the next mapping symbol (exclusive) or section end (inclusive).
However there is no defined order between a symbol and it's corresponding
mapping symbol in the symbol table. This means that while in general we look
up for a corresponding mapping symbol, we have to make at least one check of
the symbol below the address being disassembled.
When disassembling different PCs within the same section, the search for mapping
symbol can be cached somewhat. We know that the mapping symbol corresponding to
the current PC is either the previous one used, or one at the same address as
the current PC.
However this optimization and mapping symbol search must stop as soon as we
reach the end or start of the section. Furthermore if we're only disassembling
a part of a section, the search is a allowed to search further than the current
chunk, but is not allowed to search past it (The mapping symbol if there, must
be at the same address, so in practice we usually stop at PC+4).
lastly, since only data sections don't require a mapping symbol the default
mapping type should be DATA and not INSN as previously defined, however if the
binary has had all its symbols stripped than this isn't very useful. To fix
this we determine the default based on the section flags. This will allow the
disassembler to be more useful on stripped binaries. If there is no section
than we assume you to be disassembling INSN.
